Little Rock Vacay

 Right after an amazing weekend with the Gibbs side, we went right to a fun few days with the Buie side of our family!  Lori's husband, Rob (not to confused with my Robbie) arranged for them to get to be the guest Duckmasters at the Peabody Hotel one morning.  I don't think I could have ever dreamed up such an event! Let me just say...only in Arkansas probably!  Sorry, its just true! Ha!
 The gentleman in the red coat is the DuckMaster.  Here he is explaining what is about to take place and giving them their Duckmaster certificates! You got to be legit!  Note Lawson's reaction....what???
 The Duckmaster is now explaining how this ritual got started to the crowd.  Yes, I did say crowd.  There were probably 50 people waiting to see this Peabody ritual.  It takes place every morning!

 The big moment.  The kids go up in the elevator to get the Peabody ducks and bring them down to the fountain. (They told us afterward one of them pooped in the elevator.  Probably a good reason to NOT put ducks in an elevator!)
 And here they come.  I think Hudson was after one of them!

 Up the stairs and into the fountain! Just like that!
 It actually was a lot of fun for the kids!  And like I said...it was definately something new!
 Then to the gift shop to pick out a souvenir duck.  Hudson's was the baseball duck and Lawson's was the Statue of Liberty.  Love the one with rollers and coffee!
 And more lake time! Yes!  Just about our favorite summer place!

 And an afternoon of golf!


 Summer fun for sure!
